RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 The Added Clinical Value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in Evaluating Intratracheal Recurrence of Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma: Implications for Planning Surgery, Assessing Its Completeness, and Planning Radioiodine Therapy JF Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology JO J. Nucl. Med. Technol. FD Society of Nuclear Medicine SP 302 OP 305 DO 10.2967/jnmt.113.127910 VO 41 IS 4 A1 Basu, Sandip A1 Abhyankar, Amit YR 2013 UL http://tech.snmjournals.org/content/41/4/302.abstract AB In selected patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma, 18F-FDG PET/CT has been shown to have added value. We present 2 clinical examples in the settings of both iodine-concentrating and non–iodine-concentrating lesions with tracheal involvement with special reference to its importance in planning of surgery or radioiodine therapy and assessing completeness of surgery. We believe that the use of PET/CT should be considered on a case-by-case basis and specifically when SPECT/CT is unavailable or has inconclusive findings.
